I tested an upgrade from Jammy to Kinetic today (after the ubuntu-meta change) and I saw that firefox was in the list of packages to be installed during the upgrade.
Remove (was auto installed) gir1.2-mutter-10 gnome-bluetooth gnome-todo-common libevent-2.1-7 libfwupdplugin5 libgnome-bg-4-1 libgnome-desktop-3-19 libgnome-desktop-4-1 libmutter-10-0 pipewire-media-session Install: at-spi2-common attr cpp-12 dbus-bin dbus-daemon dbus-session-bus-common dbus-system-bus-common endeavour endeavour-common firefox g++-12 gcc-12 gir1.2-gnomedesktop-4.0 gir1.2-gweather-4.0 gir1.2-javascriptcoregtk-4.1 gir1.2-mutter-11 So no changes in ubuntu-release-upgrader are necessary to make this work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-meta in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1992688 Title: firefox deb not installed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: New Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in firefox source package in Jammy: New Status in ubuntu-meta source package in Jammy: New Bug description: Bug 1964036 leads me to believe that the firefox deb provides some important functionality (the firefox favourite icon in the gnome shell dock) but there is nothing that would require the deb to be installed (it is not seeded nor has an rdep) and the package description indicates that it can be safely removed. Is there some important functionality that it provides?
